Bonded Container Freight Station (CFS)

Efficient Cargo Handling at Our Bonded CFS Facility

Efficient Bonded CFS Solutions

TRT International offers comprehensive Bonded Container Freight Station (CFS) services, providing secure, customs-controlled storage and handling for imported and exported cargo of all sizes. Our bonded CFS allows shipments to remain under customs supervision, so duties and taxes do not need to be paid immediately, giving clients greater flexibility and financial control.

At our facility, shipments can be efficiently consolidated for export or deconsolidated upon import, ensuring each cargo reaches its destination safely and on time. We also provide secure short-term storage for both bonded and non-bonded goods, equipped with 24/7 monitoring and professional handling to protect against damage, theft, or loss.

With full support for customs documentation and compliance, TRT International’s bonded CFS services streamline logistics and simplify complex cargo operations, offering importers, exporters, and freight forwarders a reliable, end-to-end solution for managing their supply chain.

Customs-Controlled Storage 

TRT International’s bonded CFS provides a fully secure, customs-supervised environment where imported and exported goods can be stored safely. Clients can defer duty and tax payments until their shipments are released for domestic distribution or further transport, allowing for better financial planning and operational flexibility. This ensures complete compliance with all U.S. customs regulations while giving businesses peace of mind knowing their cargo is under professional supervision.

Consolidation & Deconsolidation 

Our facility efficiently consolidates smaller shipments from multiple suppliers into single containers for export, maximizing space and reducing transportation costs. For imports, cargo is carefully deconsolidated to ensure that each consignee receives the correct goods promptly and intact. TRT International’s experienced staff oversees every step, using modern equipment and proven processes to minimize handling risks and streamline the flow of goods.

Flexible Short-Term Storage

Whether clients are shipping LCL (Less than Container Load) or FCL (Full Container Load) cargo, TRT International offers adaptable storage solutions to accommodate varying shipment sizes. Our facilities are equipped with advanced shelving, pallets, climate control where necessary, and 24/7 monitoring to prevent damage, theft, or loss. This flexibility ensures that both bonded and non-bonded cargo can be securely stored for as long as required, supporting diverse logistics needs.

Compliance and Documentation Support 

Moving cargo through international borders requires meticulous documentation and adherence to customs rules. TRT International assists clients with all required paperwork, filings, and coordination with regulatory authorities, ensuring smooth customs clearance and reducing the risk of delays or penalties. Our team’s expertise allows businesses to focus on their operations while we manage the complex logistics of bonded storage and shipment handling.
